The royal cities of Morocco

Wandering through the alleys of the medina

The focus of this trip is on the rich culture and history of the four royal cities: Rabat, Fez, Meknes and Marrakech.
The cities are so named because each was declared the capital of Morocco by a sultan in the past.
The cities reflect the grandeur of the respective dynasties through magnificent architecture: magnificent palaces and mosques with beautiful arches, columns, mosaic floors and rich decorations.
Authentic and still full of life are the walled old parts of the city: the medinas.
Take time to wander around here, observing the multicolored details, the teahouses, the bazaars, the people offering their wares and the many visitors.
This is truly a feast for all the senses!
In each of the four cities you will take a city tour with private guide to the greatest monuments and museums, and there is also time to explore on your own. Where the world can't find you...

Endless sea of sand dunes

The ever-changing landscape makes each drive different.
The coast gives way to green regions full of agriculture and horticulture, and then the road heads up into the Atlas Mountains.
